THE JOURNAL

It makes me smile to bring you Erica & Neil’s Ann Arbor Wedding today on the blog!  It’s that time of year where I’m up to my knees in editing, yet I get to smile the whole way through as I remember couples and their wedding days.  Yes, I know, I have a really rough […]

I love that engagement shoots force me to switch gears.  From sandy beaches to the edge of one of my favorite cities, Detroit.  Which is exactly where I met up with Teresa and Justin a few weeks ago on a windy & chilly night for their shoot.  We had a few locations in mind while […]
